Gum injury children
Last week. My son had an accident. His bike flipped over.I see signs of him first.
He's bleeding out of his mouth. Some mouth cuts are contaminated dirt from a fall on the road, a chip of tooth, etc. These cuts should be cleaned by the doctor. Large or gaping cuts will get bits of food in them. Stitches might be needed. Cuts that show on the OUTSIDE of the lip should always be checked by the doctor. The membrane between the upper gum and upper lip is called the frenulum. This membrane may be torn when the lip is bumped. This is usually not a serious injury.I brought him to the nearest hospital. The Doctor cleaning his mouth.Makes his blood stopped flowing after that. Then stitches the gums him.
See the doctor if the laceration is very large or shifts around when the tongue is moved,the laceration won't stop bleeding,there is dirt or debris in the wound,the jaw can't be moved fully and there are other injuries
It can usually be treated at home.
Ongoing care use a soft diet for about two days. Avoid tart or spicy foods. Avoid stretching the mouth for big foods, such as whole apples or corn on the cob. Expect about 4 to 7 days to heal.
